We put Akoy down Friday night and set everything up. I admit, it was weird getting in the Christmas spirit again, but we managed. Akoy woke up the next morning and we ran into get him and told him Santa came. He was so excited. As per tradition Akoy came out as Maniaheim Steamroller's Deck the Halls was playing in the background. Christmas wouldn't be the same without that song. Unfortualtely Lily was still asleep, and we didn't mind letting her sleep in a bit.
This year we kept it simple in our family. Money is tight, especially at the end of a semester and Akoy didn't really need a lot. He is happy with what he has, so anything would make him happy. We tried to teach Akoy the true meaning of Christmas and talk about it. He is still learning and will hopefully understand in future.

| Lily's hair is crazy... |
Akoy got some puzzles to help him with his ABC's, numbers and colors, Monsters Inc figures, a towel, buzz movie, some car items from the dollar section and a Buzz lightyear costume for his bear that we picked up in Disneyland. Lily got a little outfit that says I love Daddy and a binky. I gave Bryson a Taylor Swift cd. (shh, I don't think he wants people to know he likes her) and I was able to score a new diaper bag clutch on babysteals. All in all, it was a great late Christmas. We don't need a lot to make up us happy. The best Christmas present was to have Bryson all to ourselves for three whole weeks! I loved every minute of that! We miss him like crazy during the semesters. Work hard, play hard... right?!

I think Lily's hair is awesome! She is so cute. And I love your diaper bag thing. I want to hear more about that train or car track thing you have in the background.. it looks cool.
